Oligomers and Polymers Based on Pentacene Building BlocksDOI: 10.3390/ma3042772 Keywords: pentacene, oligomer, polymer, oligoacene, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, semiconductor Abstract: Functionalized pentacene derivatives continue to provide unique materials for organic semiconductor applications. Although oligomers and polymers based on pentacene building blocks remain quite rare, recent synthetic achievements have provided a number of examples with varied structural motifs. This review highlights recent work in this area and, when possible, contrasts the properties of defined-length pentacene oligomers to those of mono- and polymeric systems.
